Lesbians riot at Smith College speech
WorldnetDaily ^ | May 2, 2008

Rioting lesbians have stormed a speech by "Born Gay Hoax" author Ryan Sorba on the campus of Smith College in Massachusetts, shutting down his address, according to two major pro-family organizations, Americans for Truth and Mass Resistance.

"Beware lesbians with frying pans (if you care about free speech)," AFT said in his announcement. "Lesbian activists at Smith College just couldn't stand by and let a young critic explain his views about the supposed innateness of homosexuality – so they stormed Ryan Sorba's speech on the 'Born Gay Hoax' and forced him to end it prematurely."

"Thus they decided for everyone in the room – supporters, foes, the curious and the undecided – whether Sorba's arguments would be heard. Stalin would be proud," said AFT's Peter LaBarbera.

"Brian Camenker, Amy Contrada and the dedicated folks at MassResistance.org have captured the totalitarian episode on film for the world to see. Kudos to MassResistance for once again chronicling the anti-democratic antics of the 'gay' Left for the record. It is absolutely shameful that Smith College and Massachusetts authorities would allow Sorba’s First Amendment rights to be neutralized in – of all places – the academy, which is supposed to be a place where opposing ideas can be debated freely," he said.

President Carol Christ noted in a memo "to the Smith Community" after the attack that "on a pragmatic level, after about 10 minutes the speaker could not be heard" and suggested a strategy to defeat such statements that homosexuality is not innate.

"When faced with the visit of a controversial speaker, our challenge as a community is to reaffirm our commitment to teaching and learning. Hearing the views of someone with whom you disagree affords the opportunity to sharpen one's own counterarguments, displaying the weaknesses in their reasoning or evidence," she wrote.

If people are “born gay” that would mean that there is a “gay gene” that has yet to be identified.

It could also mean that these people have been exposed to abnormal levels of hormones or some other substances before birth.

The main problem with fully accepting homosexual and other perversions, is that it lowers the bar of morality. Already, we are being set-up to accept pedofilia as normal, with NAMBLA on its way to becoming a civil-rights organization with sicko political patrons and judges to take up their cause. “Won’t happen,” some of you say? When abortion became the law of the land, most people did not foresee that it would lead to infanticie and euthanasia.

Hmmm, rather confirms my thesis, I would say.

Yes, I heard stories about gay bathhouses that curled my toes. One fellow was a grandfather whose wife fully supported his gayness. Probably his grandkids too. A wonderful down-to-earth guy, a good friend, but an emotional wreck who flew into very gay hissy fits about whatever. Probably bipolar, certainly confused.

A good, good friend went out and I swear intentionally acquired HIV. That was 18 years ago, and my friend is still going strong, looks more like a movie star than ever. But tellingly, he reproached me one day for “wearing that sexy blouse” because, after all, “I’m a gay man, but I’m still a man, and I don’t want to be attracted to you.” I’m sure he could have gone either way, but not with me, as I realized how dangerous he was.

The 1989 book, The Gods in Everyman by psychiatrist Jean Shinoda Bolen, describes the Poseidon man, a major type, who may be a leader but is also artistic and creative, inclined in later years to turn to male lovers. (Leonard Bernstein) Because I work in a creative, artistic field, I know plenty of these guys. They make great girlfriends up to a point. But there’s always a limit to such a friendship because one day, he may turn on you with no warning and for no discernible reason except an inherent distrust of women. I really cannot fault them, certainly cannot hate them, and don’t even feel sorry for them. What is is.

Glad your friend escaped the life in time to save his life.

I always thought Wellesley College had the most lesbians. They have t-shirts that say, “Wellesley College, over 200 years of women coming together.”

Hillary Clinton went to Wellesley; Nancy Reagan is a Smith alum (Barbara Bush also went to Smith, but left to marry George).
